Source Urbaine offers its solutions to adapt the city of tomorrow to the effects of climate change by integrating a very important stormwater management component. The goal is also to adapt the city as it is without having to undertake major development. Our project, the Urban Rain Garden, proposes the recovery of rainwater directly at its collection point for the benefit of nature in the city. The design we have successfully developed allows the plants in the installation to achieve water autonomy, even during periods of prolonged water stress. This represents savings in water resources as well as in their management (watering, load, and labor). In addition to requiring very little intervention for watering the plants or maintaining the structure, our solutions act as veritable islands of coolness for the city. By using the natural principle of evapotranspiration, the water consumed by the plants is released back into the environment and contributes to the fight against urban heat islands.

Learn more Sustainable mobility

The deployment of charging infrastructure in buildings must be massive and rapid to meet the demand generated by the goal of 100% EV sales in Europe by 2035. This deployment must be achieved while taking into account energy and raw material constraints while enhancing safety for widespread use in all buildings and for all users. Furthermore, all types of parking lots must be equipped: covered and outdoor parking lots. Current solutions do not meet this growing and urgent need. AMPERE has therefore designed a solution based on a smart power bus, which saves the weight of copper cabling, continuously measures and monitors each point of the network to ensure very precise, real-time power management while increasing the level of safety (electrical and fire).

Bout_a_Bout

Bout_à_Bout

Bout’ à Bout’ is developing a large-scale glass container reuse sector, taking action at all levels: supporting producers, informing consumers in stores to facilitate container returns, and collecting, washing, and returning glass containers. In a context of rising environmental challenges, reusing glass containers appears to be an effective solution: compared to the “single-use” glass system and its recycling, reuse can halve water consumption and reduce energy consumption and CO2 emissions by more than three. Consumers simply need to: Check that the glass container bears the national reuse label (on the bottle label or on the shelf; a communication will identify eligible products). Return it to the designated area in partner stores (collection bins, return machines).

Revival transforms sneakers into rare and competitive Recycled Raw Materials (RPM).

terre Utile

Terre Utile is a pioneering start-up whose ambition is to provide landscaping companies with high-quality recycled topsoil, an ecological alternative to natural topsoil, which must be preserved. The topsoil currently used for green spaces comes from the clearing of natural, agricultural, and forested areas (ENAF), often located far from cities. It is a non-renewable resource on a human scale. At the same time, millions of tons of soil are excavated from construction sites each year and sent to final disposal areas (ISDI). Terre Utile’s project aims to develop high-quality topsoil from land intended for landfill. The implementation of this new, short-circuit recycling process offers numerous ecological benefits by reducing CO2 emissions from transportation and waste, and preserving ENAF. This recycled topsoil will also provide numerous ecosystem services.
